- Application-specific integrated circuit(ASIC)
An application-specific integrated circuit, or ASIC /?e?s?k/, is an integrated circuit (IC) customized for a particular use, rather than intended for general-purpose use. For example, a chip designed to run in a digital voice recorder is an ASIC. Application-specific standard products (ASSPs) are... - Complex programmable logic device(CPLD)
The building block of a CPLD is the macrocell , which contains logic implementing disjunctive normal form expressions and more specialized logic operations.A good example is where a CPLD is used to load configuration data for an FPGA from non-volatile memory.
The main distinction between... - Field-programmable gate arrays(FPGA)
Field-programmable gate arrays (FPGA) are the modern-day technology for building a breadboard or prototype from standard parts; programmable logic blocks and programmable interconnects allow the same FPGA to be used in many different applications. For smaller designs and/or lower production... - Programmable Array Logic(PAL)
Programmable Array Logic (PAL) is a family of programmable logic device semiconductors used to implement logic functions in digital circuits introduced by Monolithic Memories, Inc. (MMI) in March 1978. MMI obtained a registered trademark on the term PAL for use in "Programmable Semiconductor... - Simple Programmable Logic Device(SPLD)
A simple programmable logic device (SPLD) is a programmable logic device with complexity below that of a complex programmable logic device (CPLD).
